Its addictive and euphoric properties have been public knowledge since the 1920's. The abuse of Oxycodone is not a recent phenomenon either. It has been an issue in the United States since the early 1960s. But the recent exponential increase in the number of addicts which follows the release of a much more potent oxycodone variant, trademarked OxyContin. Oxycodone has the same potency as morphine and a similar opiate effect. Misusing this prescription painkiller can bring lethal consequences, but it has grown in popularity because of the availability and relatively cheap cost of a powerful heroin-like &quot;hit&quot;. Designed as a sustained-release version of the drug, OxyContin contains up to twenty times the normal amount of the active ingredient. It was soon discovered that by crushing the pills (destroying their slow-release polymer) and then swallowing, snorting or injecting the resulting powder a heroin-like high could be cheaply achieved&lt;ref&gt;Luke Skrebowski, [http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2002/mar/24/drugsandalcohol.theobserver Oxycodone Explained], ''The Guardian'', 24-March-2002&lt;/ref&gt;.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"> </td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"> </td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">==Adverse effects==</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"> </td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"> </td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">Adverse effects of Oxycodone use include: dependence, tolerance development and liver damage.
